Book review written by Brian Lowen for the recorded bookshow being aired in October 2013
Another excellent
thriller from the pen of S K.
When writer Rob
Fallon goes out one night and ends up with his best mate’s ex girlfriend,
Jenny, he is beginning to feel guilty before anything happens. But that guilt
turns to shock when two thugs break into Jenny’s apartment, kidnap her, and try
to kill Rob. When Rob reports this to the Police no one believes him, because the
crooks have left no trace of their abduction. Even Jenny’s father is no help as
he says that she is on holiday abroad.
Rob realises
Jenny’s life must be in danger so he starts asking questions. The only police
officer to believe Rob’s story is Detective Tina Boyd, a rather maverick type
cop. She cannot get permission to have a team investigating this disappearance
so she sets off on her own.
Rob soon becomes
the target of the brutal killers who are as terrifying as they are elusive.
But what do they
want and what does it have to do with an ordinary girl like Jenny?
When Tina falls
into the clutches of the gang the action really hots up as the final
realisation of the gang’s intention becomes apparent.
Tina’s absence is
noticed by her boss, DI Mike Bolt and he sets out to find her, helped by his
side-kick. Mo Khan.
Things move along
at a hectic pace as the gang are finally cornered, but there are a couple of
surprising twists to the tale in the final conclusion.
Excellent, page
turning stuff that keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout.
